On Top: PWI Releases Annual Women’s 250 List, Popular Choice At #1

She’s #1. There are all kinds of titles and accolades in wrestling but the majority of them are lost at some point in a wrestler’s career. It can be a big deal when someone earns something that is there forever, which is often the case with something that is earned outside of a wrestling promotion. That is what we saw again this week as a talented wrestler topped a list.

That’s a heck of a list. Check out some of the top names included:

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that will always get a lot of attention as you can go with all kinds of lists like this one. You can see a variety of options for #1 and the question becomes what should be valued more than others. Storm is certainly a viable option at #1 as she has dominated a good chunk of the year in the second biggest promotion going today, but that might not mean something for everyone. It is certainly worth a look and should get people talking.

What do you think of Storm’s year? Who would you have at #1? Let us know in the comments below.
